Extra seven
They left the second world quietly. Before going to the pixel world, Jiang Yuanshi decided to solve the real problem now. After all, only when the original author wakes up can the game be updated better. He can't always trouble the main god who is responsible for studying, finding a partner, looking for relatives, and managing the bookstore. After Jiang Yuanshi and Z01 finish dealing with things, he will have to go and help and repay the favor.
Jiang Yuanshi and Z01 came to the reality. In the intensive care unit, there lay a patient wrapped in gauze, with a weak heartbeat and an unrecognizable face. Outside the transparent wall, there was an old man with a hunched back and a cane who was reluctant to leave. The old man was wearing a plain dress and had an elegant demeanor, but his hair had turned gray, his face looked much older, and his eyes were bloodshot.
When the old man got tired of standing, he pulled out a folding stool and sat there refusing to leave for a moment. The medical staff could not persuade him to leave. Sometimes strangers would bring something to the old man, and everyone knew it. After all, after that incident, who would not understand the old man's behavior of not leaving?
The patient the old woman was looking at was her grandson, who had suffered severe burns due to an accidental car accident and had a narrow escape from death. At first, the surviving parents in the car lamented their child's obsession with games, and they even went back to the car to get the computer regardless of the danger, which led to the current situation. But they still tried their best to beg the doctor to save their child. That behavior caused many onlookers to sigh at the parents' difficulties. But things took a turn for the worse just a few days ago. One night, when the patient was out of danger after entering the ICU for the fifth time, an unknown person in a nurse's uniform entered the room and pulled out the patient's oxygen mask, but coincidentally, he was bumped into by someone else and caught in the act.
After calling the police, they learned through interrogation that the suspect was hired by the patient's parents and that the suspect was mentally ill. Somehow, this news spread throughout the hospital, and the patient's parents showed up as usual, looking completely clueless. They even didn't find any evidence after the search. After all, the suspect was sick, so what if he was just talking nonsense?
After the patient's parents left the police station, they were interviewed in a pretentious and shameless manner, saying that they could not afford the surgery fees for their child and that life would be painful, and they did so because they could not bear it.
For a while, some people sympathized with them, believing that their lives were indeed difficult, but they were soon slapped in the face.
Just when the patient's parents were leaving, someone suddenly broke the news on the Internet that the car accident was not an accident. The person who released the news could not find the source address, only a video of the highway. In the video, the genius named Jiang Yuanshi kicked the door open immediately after the car accident, rescued his parents and let them escape, then turned around and got into the back seat of the car. After the genius entered the car, his parents closed the door with their own hands very forcefully, and then turned around and ran away. This was the only car on the road that day.
The people who were locked in never came out again, and then there was a raging fire and two people standing in the distance.
Although the victim's helplessness cannot be seen through the video, the behavior of the two murderers is enough to make people despise and curse them.
It would have been fine if it was just an accident, but why did he close the door so hard and then reach out to pull it, and then run away so quickly when he couldn't open it?
The whole set of actions was smooth and flowing, and even in the second half of the video, there were the crying and pleading of the two survivors after the police, medical staff and firefighters showed up.
People were unable to find the publisher, but they could not question the unreality of the surveillance video. That was a living person, and they could not just stand by and watch. People on the Internet began to take over, determined to pass on the video and speak out for the life that was strangled.
During this period, some people provided photos of the hospital saying that the parents were just pretending and never took care of the patient at all. It was the patient's grandmother who came to take care of him later. There was even audio of the couple meddling in other people's affairs in the corridor with an old man.
Jiang Yuanshi's parents were arrested, and this old man was the only one left in the hospital waiting for her child to wake up.
The old woman looked at her mobile phone and realized it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival. No wonder someone from the hospital sent her dumplings today. It would be great if Yuanyuan could have one of them too.
Visiting hours have arrived tonight.
The old man put on protective clothing and wrapped the crutches in his hands with ease, walked into the ward, and chatted with his grandson:
"Yuanyuan, do you know? Today is the Lantern Festival. It's time to eat glutinous rice dumplings. When you were little, you liked to pull me and ask me to eat sesame-filled glutinous rice dumplings. Unfortunately, you are grown up now, and grandma doesn't know whether you still like sesame-filled glutinous rice dumplings or not."
The person lying on the bed never opened his eyes. The grandmother talked to herself for a long time. It was almost time. The old woman wanted to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but unfortunately she was still wearing protective clothing. She moved out little by little, and heard an extremely hoarse voice behind her. The cry of a newborn kitten was louder than his voice, but it made the old woman cry completely. The voice said:
"I also like to eat...Grandma."
The old man turned around and met a pair of amber eyes.
“Bang!”
The cane fell to the ground, breaking the silence and hopelessness of the room.
[Beep——]
[All tasks are completed when the host Jiang Yuan is detected, please make a wish——]
…
Jiang Yuanshi woke up and was even very lucid, which made everyone think it was a last gasp. However, he proved with his actions that he was really alive. The treatment that had been suppressed for a long time finally made new progress. Everyone was very happy, but Jiang Yuanshi's burns were too severe and it was difficult for him to recover to his normal appearance. The treatment costs were also a considerable expense. The previous expenses were all paid by Jiang Yuanshi's parents using Jiang Yuanshi's card. They did not leave anything behind when they left, and his grandmother could not afford so much money.
Just when he was at a loss, a new opportunity came to Jiang Yuanshi. Because of the popularity on the Internet, a related research institute quietly contacted Jiang Yuanshi. They specialized in artificial skin grafting and hoped to find Jiang Yuanshi as a volunteer to do skin grafting for him free of charge. If the failure occurred, he would not die, at most the status quo could be maintained.
After Jiang Yuanshi discussed it with his grandmother and got her consent, he nodded.
A few days later, the patient and his family were taken away overnight, but no one knew where they went.
Of course, no one can know about this, because this research institute does not exist in reality. Chunchun is just an excuse made by Jiang Yuanshi in order to restore himself to a normal person.
He discussed countermeasures with Z01 before he returned to his body.
How can a patient who has been burned to the point where only a human form remains be restored to his original appearance in public?
It is almost impossible in reality, but fortunately, the fact that Jiang Yuanshi can bind with the system is beyond cognition, not to mention that he has now become the "order", and the abilities he possesses are on par with those of God, but his authority is higher than that of the current God.
With the wish Jiang Yuanshi got when he completed all the tasks, he successfully took his grandmother to a made-up sanatorium to recuperate. Every day he pretended to be taken away for research in front of his grandmother, and then pieced himself back together bit by bit like picking up fragments.
Almost half a year has passed in a flash, and Jiang Yuanshi has recovered almost completely. He even asks for the dumplings made by his grandmother.
I don’t know why, but the grandmother feels that the child she hasn’t seen for many years is still so kind, and even becomes more spoiled after growing up. It’s really strange, but she is very happy. After all, watching the chubby boy grow into the handsome boy he is today, the grandmother often wonders if she has given her grandson plastic surgery during the skin grafting.
Whenever this happened, Jiang Yuanshi would take out his student ID to protest his innocence, but it was obvious that he looked much better in person than on his student ID.
Jiang Yuanshi said silently: "Ms. Gu Siyuan, the people who go to school are more resentful than ghosts. I didn't close my eyes to sleep and took the photo, which is the greatest respect for the cameraman."
The grandmother, who was called by her real name, hit her grandson on the head with a spoon. They talked a lot in the past six months. Later, at Jiang Yuanshi's suggestion, the grandmother changed her name accompanied by a doctor. After that, her grandson started calling her Grandma Gu or Ms. Gu every day like an alarm clock, as if he was afraid that she would forget.
This child...Ms. Gu shook her head, changed a new spoon, stirred the porridge, handed it to Jiang Yuanshi who was able to move, and said, "Come and eat."
Jiang Yuanshi said with a sullen face, "Where are the sesame dumplings you promised? Ms. Gu, you are not keeping your word."
"You still want to eat glutinous rice balls? I made them for you before because you didn't tell me that you had a bad stomach. If you knew, I would never give you a child in my entire life. Do you know how badly the doctor told me about your stomachache after you ate six glutinous rice balls last time? That kid is like an encyclopedia, he kept talking to me and it gave me a headache. If you want to eat them, ask him first."
Jiang Yuanshi curled his lips: "That guy won't agree."
When the doctor arrived, a man wearing a white coat like a catwalk windbreaker knocked on the door and walked in. On his name tag was an English name starting with Z. When Ms. Gu saw it, she smiled and said, "Oh, Dr. Xiaozhi is here."
Doctor Xiaozhi nodded: "Hello."
Originally, she wanted to call him Doctor Z, but the grandmother found it difficult to pronounce. Then, he said he had a Chinese name, "Jiang Zhi", which was also a coincidence, as he had the same surname as her grandson. As they got to know each other better, she changed his name to Xiao Zhi.
“Want to ask how the patient is doing today?”
"Everything is fine, except that they want to eat tangyuan."
"Why did you tell him this, Grandma?"
The doctor nodded and took them to a special clinic for a routine checkup. On the way, Jiang Yuanshi sat in a wheelchair and whispered, "Tell me! Did all my grandma's dumplings go into your stomach?"
Z01: "Didn't grandma say there were no glutinous rice balls today?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "But I smell sesame and glutinous rice. She definitely brought it today, but it went into your mouth. Tell me! What did you do? Why did I have a stomachache last time?"
Z01 said calmly, "You were the one who said that you wanted to be an ordinary person and live a normal life when you came to this world, so naturally you would have a stomachache after eating six dumplings in a row while shielding your divine power."
When Jiang Yuanshi was out of his grandmother's sight, he lay back, rubbed the back of his head against the doctor's abdomen and said, "You are obviously angry. I want to recover slowly by myself."
Z01: "Yes, if you use divine power, you can tamper with everyone's memory in an instant, and there is no need to be physically weak due to the influence of world factors."
"But if we miss a single one during the tampering, something will go wrong, and we haven't completely mastered our power yet. It's better to do it slowly, which not only saves effort but also helps us slowly improve our control."
Z01 looked at the other person's face, which was paler and thinner than before, and said coldly: "You are forcing yourself to suffer."
Jiang Yuanshi dragged out his words and said, "Yes, so it should be paired with something sweet, such as sesame-filled rice dumplings or something like that." As he said that, he turned his head and looked up at someone with his eyes slanted: "You compensate me! I'm so miserable now."
Z01: “…”
He couldn't spit it out, and if possible, Z01 also wanted to leave some for Jiang Yuanshi to take back to the space to eat, but for some reason, Grandma Jiang specially sent him the dumplings and watched him finish eating. Her eyes this morning were really like thorns in the back, as if sitting on pins and needles.
Z01 subconsciously wiped the nonexistent sweat. Jiang Yuanshi asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Z01 thought about it and told Jiang Yuanshi everything honestly. Jiang Yuanshi was stunned for a moment, then realized something and scratched his face embarrassedly and said, "Sorry, I think I told my grandma that."
"?" Z01, "What did you say?"
Jiang Yuanshi said: "When we were chatting, my grandmother asked me if I had any girls I liked, and I said you're pretty good."
Z01: ?
Is this jump right?
Jiang Yuanshi also knew something was wrong. He sighed, "There's nothing I can do. It seems like she's already discovered it and is just waiting for me to reveal it. I might as well reveal it sooner rather than later."
Z01 frowned: "How did your grandmother find out? And how do you know that your grandmother found out?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "Well, it's my intuition. After all, I'm pretty good at reading people's expressions. But I don't know how grandma found out. How about asking her some other day? Forget it, I'll just wait until you're better and then I'll take you to become a regular employee."
Jiang Yuanshi thought about it one by one. Z01 was obviously not a human, but now his heart was throbbing: "Is he going to meet the parents?"
"Haven't you already met? I'll give you a formal meeting ceremony when the time comes, okay?" Jiang Yuanshi twisted his body and leaned on the back of the chair with his hands, looking up at Z01, and said eagerly, "So don't be mad at me, boyfriend."
“…”
Z01 is down.
In the distance, the grandmother was wearing reading glasses and looking at the two children whose faces were almost touching each other. She couldn't help shaking her head. In her eyes, her grandson had smiling eyes and was very happy.
She took out her cell phone, opened her notepad, and sighed at the list of countries where same-sex marriage is allowed. Why are there so few?
I'm so worried, I'm dying of worry.
